10 Ways To Drive Your Toddler Crazy

Scary Mommy has put together a list of ways that you're sure to get under that toddler's skin and make him pay for that giant mess he made with his syrup at breakfast.

Check out the best ones:

1. Hold them too tight or too loose.

2. Display affection for any of the other children in your house.

3. Don’t let them ride you like a horsey while you are attempting to do Granny push-ups on the floor.

4. Try to stand at the end of the one slide at the park that will launch them ten feet into the air, because clearly you didn’t stand there for their brother so you won’t be standing there for them, either.

5. Don’t let them push those tiny carts in the grocery store when you just can’t bring yourself to deal with the drama that day.

6. Don’t let them talk to Grandma on the phone. For hours. And by talking I mean staring at the phone and smiling while Grandma and you both try desperately to get one word out of them.

7. Not kiss the exact right spot where they injured themselves. Even if it’s their butt.

8. Suggest that it’s almost time to go to bed or put clothes on or eat lunch. Suggest anything, really.

9. Don’t let them drink out of every water fountain in every library and every airport on the planet.

10. Not help them when they specifically asked you not to help and now they are irreversibly stuck in their sweatshirt or underpants.

Did you laugh? I laughed so hard as I read these! The other reasons on the list of 25 are great too. Be sure to check it out for some laughs. When you're parenting a toddler, you need a good sense of humor or you'll go crazy too.
